T4 in Cornwall?
Does anyone know if there is a trusted T4 operator in Cornwall please?
I wouldn't go to anyone but the demigods inhabiting these hallowed e-halls for anything major like diagnostics or remapping, but all I need done is to get a spare key coded. Is Exeter Street Garage in Newton Abbot the nearest? Thanks Martin |

I think Newton Armpit is likely the closest. I haven't seen anyone advertising T4 services in Plymouth or Cornwall.

I'd give Rodgers of Plymouth a call - 01752-402623, ask for Richard who's in charge in the workshops.
They were the main dealer for many years and I'm pretty certain they'll still have their T4

They did the belts on my first 75; cost me over £700 ten years ago!  |

Ther is also Vanstones of Launceston, they are still a Rover specialist.
I used them to have the belts done on my previous 75. Regards Tom

I'd rather travel a couple of hundred miles than use a "professional" T4 opperator.
In my opinion enthusiasts are always better than garage operatives every time. That go's for any "hobby orientated" job. Enthusiasts enquire & explore further into any hobby they embrace, to professionals it's just another job till home time. Seek out a T4 guy here on the forum.  Kev. |

If your spare key doesnt have a bar code then they won't be able to program it.

If I were having a remap or any ECU jiggery pokery done, I'd go to one of our experts (Phil) or go without. Quote:
I hadn't considered that. I have acquired a second-hand gubbins to go into the blade from my original key, left over when I switched to a flip key. So there's no way I could get that coded to my car then? |
